Default my new head installed and...

just installed a new head on my ti over the past 4 days, following the procedures from the bently manual and some other official bmw documents via cd

andd no luck.

first start had a high pitch whining noise following a few more times and it slowly began to start very rough till it stalled itself out. tried that a few more times and the final time it began to smoke a bit from the head area. could my timing chain be off?

see short sound clip video:

what i'm hoping is the pistons didnt hit the values and bend/break them
